吉林省德惠市第三中学2020届九年级上学期英语第一次月考试卷(含听力音频)

阅读理解

    Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unlucky, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.

    When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.

    Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid(避免) giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say, "Sorry, I am a stranger here."

    Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn't want to keep him waiting.

    When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!

举一反三
阅读下列短文,从下面每小题的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

    Ever since I was a child,my mouth has caused me trouble.I'm not a bad person;I have just had a hard time learning when to keep my mouth closed.

My mom has told me again and again,"Robert,your constant bad words are hurting me.If you continue to be this rude,you will get into big trouble."

    It's been a problem at school several times,too,when teachers have told me something I didn't want to hear.I used to feel it was my duty to stand up for myself and tell them ______ off.

    One day in English class I began working on my homework until I heard a classmate talking behind me.It was Nathaniel,talking to himself as usual.

I said ever so nicely,"Nathaniel,would you be quiet?"

Nathaniel continued talking to himself.I quickly shouted,"Nathaniel,shut up!"

    For the next five minutes,we threw hurtful words back and forth at each other.

"At least I don't have an ugly lazy eye like you!"I shouted.

    I knew this would bother him deep inside.It would hurt his feelings and shut him up.

What I said filled him with anger.He tried to reach over my seat and grab me as he shouted."That's it! That's it!"

    Surprised at his reaction,I sat back in seat.Never had I seen Nathaniel act like this before.

Later on,we were taken to the principal's office.

There,the principal told US to discuss the matter.It wasn't until then that I finally found that when I hurt someone physically,the wounds(伤口)eventually heal.But when I hurt them with my words,sometimes the pain never goes away.

    At the end of the discussion,I said sorry to Nathaniel.

    When I headed back to my room,I spent some time praying. I began to think about how often what I said hurt others.But I believe that as I keep praying and asking God to help me,he'll tell me when to keep my mouth closed.
